Find the median of the following data: 41, 43, 127, 99, 61, 92, 71, 58, 57 if 58 replaced by 85, what will be the new median.

Given, numbers are:

41, 43, 127, 99, 61, 92, 71, 58, 57


Arrange in ascending order:


41, 43, 57, 58, 61, 71, 92, 99, 127


n = 9 (odd)


Therefore, median = value


=


= 5th value = 61


If 58 is replaced by 85


Then the new value be in order:


41, 43, 57, 61, 71, 85, 92, 99, 127


n = 9 (odd)


Therefore, median =


=


= 5th value = 71
